Contacting a sex worker online isn\u2019t like online dating. You can\u2019t just text “You up?’ and expect a booking to materialise. There are a few dos and don\u2019ts you need to know first. And we\u2019re here to help.<\/p>\n
Scroll down to get the lowdown on how to interact with sex workers online now. <\/em><\/p>\n Don\u2019t fall into the trap of thinking, “It\u2019s just a message”, when talking with sex workers. As professionals, they receive hundreds of enquiries, and constant rude or lazy messages can be unpleasant – and lessen your chance of a booking.<\/p>\n So, drop the idea that you can send a blunt email and get what you want. Like any profession, messaging with a sex worker requires a layer of professionalism to help them understand what services you want and that you\u2019re not wasting their time.<\/p>\n Respect is a significant part of contacting sex workers; you must always respect their boundaries. But a little more on this below.<\/em><\/p>\n Being polite is vital to any successful sex worker relationship<\/a>. Just because you\u2019re behind a screen, it doesn\u2019t give you the agency to lower the tone or send rude requests.<\/p>\n When conversing with a sex worker, provide clear information and your expectations for the session. Take time to look at their online presence and services before and include the ones you\u2019re interested in the message. This gives them an overview of your needs, and thus they can see whether they have availability.<\/p>\n In addition, you should offer your name and a polite hello. Giving a bit of personal information shows you\u2019re serious about making a booking and adds a bit of humanity to the conversation – something that\u2019s often overlooked even though it’s the first basic rule of how to interact with sex workers.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, there\u2019s no rulebook for chatting with sex workers online, and many clients accidentally make mistakes or send rude requests.<\/p>\n Here are some of the most crucial don\u2019ts to remember:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Want to avoid more don\u2019ts?

Here\u2019s a walkthrough of everything you need to know about how to interact with sex workers online.<\/p>\n Initiating contact<\/a> is the first step, but it doesn\u2019t have to be anxiety-inducing.<\/p>\n When you send your first message, be polite but not too informal – like you\u2019re booking a hair or therapy appointment. Include information about who you are, when and where you want to meet<\/a>, and the services you want. You can also add a timeframe.<\/p>\n This might seem like a lot for a first message, but it allows sex workers to see you\u2019re serious about booking, and they can instantly see whether they can book you in. Professionalism at its finest.<\/p>\n Boundaries are essential<\/a> for both clients and sex workers. So, don\u2019t push a sex worker\u2019s boundaries by sending constant messages at all hours of the day or by sending explicit messages.<\/p>\n Likewise, if a sex worker sets a limitation on specific requests, don\u2019t pressure them into doing them. A no is a no. You wouldn\u2019t force your barber to do a cut they don\u2019t want to provide, so why do it to a sex worker?<\/p>\n If your first message gives your sex worker a good overview of your scope and needs, they\u2019ll likely respond with a quote for the services you\u2019re interested in.<\/p>\n Alternatively, you can ask for their service list or rates for specific services. Some sex workers might even have a website with these details \u2014 so explore their online presence before asking outright.<\/p>\n Again, you wouldn\u2019t haggle with a barber or be rude to them because of their rates. Like any service provider, sex workers set their rates, which don\u2019t change just because you want them to. If they don\u2019t fit your needs<\/a>, politely decline. There are plenty of other sex workers out there that\u2019ll be a better fit for you.<\/p>\n Gauging language and tone can be difficult through messaging, but the best route to go is polite and professional.<\/p>\n If you can, avoid using lots of slang. You should also avoid being blunt or rude. Swearwords and explicit language are also a no-go. Friendly and professional is the best middle ground.<\/p>\n Not following this tone guide might result in your request being ignored. After all, why would a client want to work with someone rude and demanding from the get-go?<\/p>\n If you follow the language and tone guide above, your requests and suggestions will likely be well received. However, to make sure they\u2019re consensual, check in with the sex worker and ask if they\u2019re okay with discussing the services right now and whether these are services they offer.<\/p>\nThe importance of responsible online interactions and knowing how to interact with sex workers online<\/strong><\/h2>\n
